Description

Making Simple Robots is based on one idea: Anybody can build a robot! That includes kids, school teachers, parents, and non-engineers. If you’ll knit, sew, or fold a flat piece of paper into a box, you’ll build a no-tech robotic part. If you’ll use a hot glue gun, you’ll learn how to solder basic electronics into a low-tech robot that reacts to its environment. And if you’ll figure out how to use the apps on your smart phone, you’ll learn enough programming to communicate with a simple robot.

Written in language that non-engineers can take into account, Making Simple Robots helps beginners move beyond basic craft skills and materials to the recent products and tools being used by artists and inventors. Learn the way to animate folded paper origami, design a versatile robot wheel-leg for 3D printing, or program a rag doll to blink its cyborg eye. Each and every project includes step by step directions in addition to clear diagrams and photographs. And each and every chapter offers suggestions for modifying and expanding the projects, to be able to return to the projects time and again as your skill set grows.
